A Maine sheriff condemned ICE’s arrest of one of his own corrections recruits. The recruit passed background checks and had a squeaky-clean record, yet ICE detained him anyway, leaving his car running on a Portland street. This isn't public safety, this is chaos.

We agree with Donald Trump on one thing: Susan Collins should never be re-elected again.

Disgraceful. Susan Collins is taking victory laps over her role in a deal that doesn't protect Mainers’ health care but does give GOP Senators an opportunity to secure a tax-payer funded personal hand out. #MESen americanjournalnews.com/collins-fail...

Collins failed to protect Mainers’ health care. She took a victory lap anyway.
Collins is considered the most vulnerable Senate Republican facing reelection next year.

Susan Collins’ decisive vote to confirm Kavanaugh led to bans on reproductive freedom nationwide. In 2026, Mainers will reject Collins for her role in overturning Roe, her ongoing support for anti-choice judges, and the threat she poses to Mainers’ health and freedom. #MESen

Susan Collins and Washington Republicans are driving up costs on everything and have already put tens of thousands of Mainers on track to lose their health care coverage – now, Collins would rather shut down the government than fix the crises she helped create. #MESen

Susan Collins chose to protect Donald Trump instead of standing up for victims and the American people. She once again fell in line with her party bosses and ignored the will of Mainers who broadly support releasing the Epstein files. #MESen

Susan Collins continues to sell out Mainers to do the bidding of her donors. Mainers will reject her in 2026. #MESen

Mainers know the truth: Susan Collins advanced the GOP’s bill that slashes health care and food assistance. No wonder hundreds of Maine protestors booed her at her first recent public appearance. 👇 #MESen #MEPolitics

Absentee voting works for Maine. Over 350,000 of us used it in 2024. Don’t let Trump and extremists dismantle it. Visit mainedems.org/protectabsentee to take the pledge to Vote No On Question 1. #NoOnQuestion1

Question 1 is a direct attack on Maine’s absentee voting system. Nearly 40% of Mainers used absentee voting in the last election — if it passes, that system could be dismantled. Go to mainedems.org/protectabsentee to learn more and take the pledge to vote NO on Question 1. #NoOn1 #SaveAbsentee

Four years ago, 140 police officers were injured and 5 died after a MAGA mob sent by Donald Trump attacked the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to steal the election. As his second term approaches, we are fighting to defend our Democracy and freedoms against chaos and division.
Jan 6. The darkest day for American Democracy.

We are deeply saddened by the news of President Jimmy Carter's passing. He will be remembered for his outstanding service to the American people in uniform, elected office, and civilian life. We extend our heartfelt condolences to the Carter family.
President Jimmy Carter, 39th President of the United States“President Jimmy Carter will be remembered for his outstanding character and decades of service to the American people as a naval officer, elected leader, and humanitarian.

“His remarkable legacy includes his support of civil rights as the governor of Georgia, the creation of the U.S. Departments of Energy & Education during his presidency, and his work to support democracy, disaster relief, and disease prevention after leaving office. We extend our deepest condolences to the Carter family.”

Trump is again putting his own political gains & games ahead of the American people. His latest stunt could force TSA, USPS, troops, and law enforcement to work through the holidays without pay—all to make it easier for him to explode the deficit with tax breaks for billionaires.
Corporate needs you to find the differences between this picture and this picture. Picture #1: "Trump kills bipartisan border reform" Picture #2: "Trump kills bipartisan budget bill". They're the same picture.

Yesterday, President Biden established a national monument at the Maine home of Democratic trailblazer, Frances Perkins! As Secretary of Labor for Pres. Franklin D. Roosevelt, Perkins was the first woman cabinet member and a champion of Social Security, organized labor, and other New Deal policies.

Being "concerned" is not enough when it comes to protecting our military service members, Susan Collins must speak out now. Pete Hegseth is unqualified & unfit to lead our largest government agency, where Maine soldiers' lives are on the line every day. www.mainedems.org/media/maine-...
Maine Dems Call on Sen. Collins to show courage, condemn Hegseth nomination.

Can you imagine the outrage from the GOP if the Golden family made a $1.3 million deal with the Bidens? They'd call it grifting and corruption, but after watching Austin’s campaign it shouldn’t surprise anyone that he'd sell Maine out to the elites. www.bangordailynews.com/2024/11/23/p...

In the 3 years since the #BipartisanInfrastructureLaw was signed, the accomplishments have been enormous: $568 billion in investments. 66,000 projects. 940,000 construction jobs. The list goes on. All part of a massive investment in one of the greatest assets on earth: the American people.

Susan Collins just announced she is planning to break the two-term pledge she made to Mainers in 1996 for the fourth time. Suzy, it's time to come home.
